Leading Czech humourist and Kutná Hora native Václav Linek (born 1946) has contibuted to many satirical and cultural magazines (Mlady svet and Dikobraz in the past; Reader´s Digest today). He has dedicated his entire life to working for the Municipal Theatre in Kolín. The name of his exhibition of "unserious" art, Late Arrivals, is inspired by the absurd humour that is defining characteristic of Václav Linek. It is a peculiar kind of apology to his father, a drawing teacher at the former Kutná Hora secondary school located not far from Jesuit College where Linek regularly arrived late. Late Arrivals presents a cross-section of Linek´s older works as well as his most recent black-and-white and colour drawings.
